Application of fumed silica in food

Today we are introducing a kind of food additive, fumed white carbon black, which can make these dry powder foods not agglomerate and harmless to human body.
   
  When it comes to food additives, everyone is sure that the problem is coming: Is it poisonous? Are there any side effects? Will you gain weight when you eat?
   
Directly on the answer: non-toxic, no side effects, no gain, will be directly discharged into the body. (Of course, everything must have a premise, conscience and regular businesses are added according to the national food standards. After all, it is not good to eat anything!)
    
 The scientific answer is: through the consumption of additives into the human body with silica, weak alkaline cavity environment, strong acid acid environment, weak acid intestinal environment, it does not decompose, does not absorb, and finally discharged with the feces.
       
Fumed silica is a colorless, odorless, non-toxic ultra-fine inorganic new material widely used in people's production and life. As a food additive, the main function of fumed silica is to prevent agglomeration of the powdered food and improve its fluidity, thereby maintaining the good appearance of the powdered food. Moreover, for the whole industry chain of powder food from production, processing to transportation, this characteristic will bring great improvement in efficiency.
   
The reason why fumed silica can produce such a magical effect in powder foods is mainly due to its two characteristics:

 1. Has a large specific surface area. This property allows it to be wrapped around the surface of the powder material, which acts as a spacer between the powder particles, thereby preventing the adhesion from promoting the free flow of the powder food.
    
2. Has a strong adsorption. The specific structure of fumed silica promotes its absorption of grease and moisture on the surface of the powder, thereby reducing the adhesion between the powders.

It is precisely because fumed silica has such characteristics that it has been widely used in various powder foods such as milk powder, coffee, and seasonings, which can prevent powder food from agglomerating, is easy to transport, and can also increase the taste. So, when you rush a cup of delicious milk and see the even smooth milk powder granules, don't forget that there is a fumed white carbon black!
